Position:  Operations Engineer

Datacom Location:  Adelaide, Brisbane, Canberra, Melbourne and Sydney (Not WA)

Our Why 

Datacom works with organisations and communities across Australia and New Zealand to make a difference in people’s lives and help organisations use the power of tech to innovate and grow. 

About the Role (Your Why)  

Datacom operations are seeking an Operations Centre Engineer whose role is to monitor systems including Windows, UNIX, Database, Cloud and backups in real-time on a 24x7x365 rotational basis and able to troubleshoot/triage/resolve events or escalating to specialist’s teams for resolution. You will receive a standby allowance for when offshift and when called in to cover, all hours are considered overtime. There is a shift allowance of 12.5% on all working hours too so that standard pay is as uniform as possible, regardless of if you are day or night shift.

It is essentially just above an entry-level role, so don't let the title scare you off! We do still need people with IT experience - the role is perfect for those who have done service desk or desktop engineering work - but note that this is still an associate level position. It is seen as a transitionary role and a great stepping stone to get into higher level IT roles, as has happened with many of our staff since the teams' inception 4 years ago. After working in this role, you should be able to handle the business critical tasks and changes while you have time to focus on any certifications you are interested in. You can really showcase your skills ihere and be involved with the technologies that you want to be involved with, initially at a lower level but you can steadily increase your utilisation of other, higher technologies as you grow and develop.

Our offices are based in Adelaide, Brisbane, Canberra, Melbourne, Perth and Sydney. We like to bring people together in person when we can, but we are mindful of the benefits of working from home for work/life balance. We therefore leave it to you and the team you join to figure out what works best!

• The role involves shift work, so you need to be able to work autonomously or part of small team.
• You need to be able to think on your feet as you will need to deal with a number of customers with changing needs.

This role requires Australian Citizenship and you must be able to obtain a minimum Baseline Security Clearance and is available across most of our AU offices except for WA due to the time difference being difficult to roster; Sydney, Melbourne, Canberra, Brisbane and Adelaide are all places we have a Datacom offices where you can work from! Note that the majority of the work will be from home though and you may be in the office as little as once per month!
